What makes this particular keyboard cover worth the extra money versus a significantly cheaper one?

It's the feel. You don't really feel like there IS a keyboard cover. This I really like; however, I really don't care for how it's appearance changes almost immediately. It becomes so cloudy, you can barely identify your keys. Heat is another concern. This MBP vents heat through the keyboard, which is very important. The Moshi seals in the heat, forcing the Mac to vent elsewhere. Hope that helps.

Moshi's is thinner and fits better. The thicker ones don't feel like your keyboard normally would. It takes getting used to having something between your fingertips and the keyboard keys. Moshi is thinner so it's less material between you and your keys. And because it fits better, you will like it better.

I'm sorry I can't answer this question. This is the first keyboard cover I'v purchased. Seemed to fit nicely and matches my MacBook Air cover. Wanted to protect my keyboard for spills !!

I don't know what the other one is like. This one has 2 USB ports in the keyboard. If the less expensive one does not, that is probably what the 2.0 means.

Probably since they have the same keyboard. But the fit is anything but good. Lots of places the one I received does not fit well on my keyboard.

Yes to all of your questions. This is very slightly thicker, connects just like the "original," and the top is plastic (keys and trackpad) and rubber (probably rubber coated plastic) everywhere else. The back of the keyboard has a grey fabric that provides some friction to keep the keyboard/Surface from sliding around on a smooth surface.

No it's not, even the expensive ones don't seem rubberized much, I originally bout a 50 dollar one from best buy, it was good but over time cracked in the corners. This one is defiantly cheaper in price and quality, but I thought I'd buy a few so if it cracked I can switch it out. I haven't had a problem since the purchase, but do notice a difference in quality fir sure even the keyboard cover. But I kind of like having the options of changing colors, if you don't care about that, might be worth it to go more expensive because this one is a lot thinner than the more expensive ones.

I'm not sure what you mean by keyboard cover. This is a full-size keyboard that opens us with storage underneath and holds a iPad in slot.

I purchased mine through amazon fulfillment on December 10th, and it came with a free keyboard cover.

I have no idea. I don't recall there being two different styles when I bought it. I know that I got it with Prime shipping though. And, it's still working great! It's right next to my keyboard.

There is another version of the keyboard that comes with a case. Get that one if you need it.

I would agree with the other reviews; the keyboard cover is a tad lighter- but it's easier to see the keys & the case itself is prolly a shade or 2 lighter.

Yes, I did. The battery life is significantly longer, and the battery seems to be more durable. Also, the battery is somewhat larger in diameter, causing a small 'hump' on the bottom of the laptop. I love it, because it tips the keyboard a bit, making it much easier to see and operate. Give it a shot, Mike. You'll love it.

no it doesn't. I bought this, and returned it because it was so slick I was petrified every time I picked it up (seriously!). Yes, the silicone keyboard cover is nice, but what good is the keyboard if the laptop crashes on the floor? I replaced this one with " USTCover 2-in-1 AQUA Rubberized Hard Shell Case Cover for 13.3" A1342 Apple White Unibody MacBook and Keyboard Cover (A1342 Aqua-Rubberized) It is actually cheaper, but does everything you could ask - and it also has a keyboard cover. If you desire a full cover (keyboard & mousepad) you can buy that separately, here or on ebay, for less than $5. I reviewed the UST cover -- read that & you will understand why you do NOT want this cover! no it doesn't.

I got the purple and black ones- they keyboard cover is slightly darker than the case. The case is a translucent and the keyboard cover isn't.
